Breeding Update

Site Update

Little update on the breeding front. Kaiyo (and the rest of staff) have been being vague about my situation since it involved my health and some... less than ideal situations, and they didn't feel like it was their place to talk about it publicly. I appreciate that and I want to let you all know what's been going on.

I got behind on things in December of '16 when I had a work accident and ended up with brain swelling and a whole lot of not-fun stuff. I was almost caught up with everything last week. (Horray!)

Then on Friday I was in a 4 car collision. Been in the hospital, Kyu updated staff for me on what was going on, and now I'm back home in a neck brace and a whole lot of pain.

Basically the last two years for Mauri can be summarized by this:
2016 - "I threw so much bad luck and crap at Mauri I win."
2017 - "Hold my beer."

So don't touch me, I'm apparently cursed. |:

On the good news of things, besides 2 lists and a chunk of breedings that need mistakes fixed prior to finalizing I'm basically caught up on everything breeding-side, minus my inbox. Additionally we're working on ruling Breeding Mistakes 5.0 and will soon send those rulings out and get all that stuff worked on asap.

I've also trained someone to help with MBC and Derps, and am training someone to help with RBC. I want to divide and conquer so that the cruddy situations of a single person don't take down an entire feature for a period of time. That's been in the works for 3 months now, thank goodness.

I am in the need for some more helpers but that will need to wait until I can focus on my screen enough to respond to people. In the meantime, if you know how to edit % check pets feel free to send me an email to [email protected] if you're interested in volunteering some help with some breeding-stuff in the future. Include your username and ID. Note: My responses may be sporadic or delayed for the next week or so.

I love you all and I'm sorry things have been a bit cruddy the past few months. We had started training people to avoid just this and unfortunately my life went to shit twice in the process before our trainees were ready. <3

I am so sorry that you had to go through this, Mauri! My wish for you for 2017 is good health and fortune!

I am a relative newbie to the site and am not involved with breeding, but it looks like dividing up the tasks may have been a positive decision for this site.

Get well soon!

Holy carp, I'm glad you're okay (relatively), but life is really throwing everything it can at you :c

Take your time to rest and heal, and please don't hesitate to let us know if there's anything we can do to be helpful.

Holy crap, I'm so sorry about all the bad luck! I hope your luck changes for the better soon. I'm glad to see that other people are being trained and recruited, though! I'm sure it will be a relief when there isn't so much pressure on you, especially in case you need any kind of long term rest. Sending hugs your way <3
